Catholic church

Last night my youngest son asked me if he could go play his guitar at a Catholic gathering. He has brought his Catholic friend several times to church and his friend wanted him to visit his church. It is a charismatic Catholic church. When my son came home he was amazed telling me that they sang the same type songs believers sing here in Brazil. He is inviting his friend to come this Sunday as we are not only having our regular Sunday Service but we have a visiting minister from the states and we have some to be baptized. Please help me pray for my son's friend to feel the convicting presence of the Lord and begin to understand the difference in his church and ours.
We also will be having a van load from another state coming that we bapized the pastor and his family in May in Jesus Name. He is bringing some of his people so hear more about baptism and some have asked for baptism.
We are also supposed to baptize a trinity national misssionary. So God is moving. Of course when God moves the devil tries to destroy but that is normal.
Please keep our Sunday service in your prayers.
Thanks.

Only outside the box we can win the world...the highways and byways, the Lord never told us to preach to our same 20 or whatever He told us to preach to the entire world and for that to be done we must have an open heart and open mind...
Preached about everywhere here...Baptist, Assembly of God. Schools, jails, been to mass, to devil worshipping churches...if by any means I might save some...NOTHING that I have been around has affected what is in my heart... I think some people have too shallow of an experience and they are afraid to trust the Holy Ghost to lead and guide them...
Even celebrated a Christmas party with the devil worshippers and Catholics...in the end the ones I took with me prayed a bunch of them through to the Holy Ghost...The party that was supposed to end around 6 ended well after 10 that night...
Once prayed two ladies through to the Holy Ghost right on the side of the road!
If people would just realize we have living water in a thirsty world and the bread of life in a hungry world....
Ever we contaminate them with our experience or they contaminate us...I chose to contaminate them.
Blessings to all.

I go to the local Catholic church on my lunch break for prayer and meditation. Nice quiet atmosphere. People leave me alone.

God will minister to the people in that audience. We are proud of him.

Sis Alvear,

I felt the Holy Ghost as I read your posts. What is your address again?
